Where can I read more about Ogg Vorbis ?? I'm curious exactly how it's
"superior" to mp3... I must admit, I've never tried a file in that
format myself.
It looks like "vorbis-tools" is the package I need to download and try
out. Hmmm, my xmms won't load at the moment. Gives this error:
Segmentation fault

I *think* it's already got a plug-in that allows it to play ogg-vorbis
files.
